00:11It's been nearly two years since Kevin was blindsided by his divorce from his wife of

00:1618 years, Christine Baumgartner, and he's clearly back in the saddle.

00:20A source tells us,

00:40He's happy and she's happy, and that's all he can ask for."

00:49The source says,

00:50"...Kevin's flattered by all the admiration, but he isn't taking it too seriously.

00:53Yet he remains open to finding love again."

00:56And we hear that he has been on a few dates, but nothing serious, and that he's looking

01:01for a lady who isn't in the industry.

01:37And when he is not working, the source says that Kevin is happiest when he's home in Santa

01:41Barbara or at his sprawling Aspen ranch with his family, children, and his Labrador, Bobby.

01:47He also enjoys hanging out with members of his small but trusted inner circle.
